Spanish Language Courses: Each semester, students are required to take a Spanish language class. An assessment will be given to determine skill level. If you take a course that is taught in Spanish while at NYU Madrid, you will fill the language requirement. 

Electives

CCMPH students have the option of taking at least two electives during the course of the program but at least one must be taken during the spring semester to ensure full-time enrollment for the Schengen Visa required in Spain.  

GPH short-term programs

GPH offers short-term study abroad intensive courses during January (J-term) and spring break. This is a great way for students to travel to another country for one to two weeks, earn 3-credits, and experience a different culture. Cross-Continental MPH students are able to participate in these programs but must apply to the programs during the application process, and are required to pay the airfare and the program fee that accompanies the program. Tuition and fees are included in the CCMPH tuition as long as the student's credits don't exceed 46 (or full-time course load). 

IMPORTANT

Required Credits: All MPH students must earn a minimum of 46-credits (full-time status) to graduate. There are opportunities to take your required two electives during the fall, J-term, spring and spring break.

Credit Overload: If a student chooses to take more than 46-credits (or the full-time course load) during the program, they are responsible for paying the additional tuition and fees for those courses and must receive approval from their adviser in advance of registering for classes. 

Academic Calendar 2019-2020

Date of departure will depend on Commencement date, yet to be confirmed.

Academic Calendar 2018-2019

Students have a choice during J-Term to take an online course, a course in-person at NYU New York, apply for an intensive study abroad course (program fees and airfare is not covered under the CCMPH program), or not take an elective if they choose to take the elective in a different semester.
